Trac Bar, Ball joints, pretty much everything underthere should be relativly tight.

all that causes the Death wobble is that sideways shock in the front end.It is under 100 bucks here in Canada

Oh man, if only that was all there was to it...

:nope:

Regardless, chances are it does have it and unless you're paying top dollar it shouldn't be a deal breaker. Fixing it takes a little doing, but it's fairly well documented.
